2-2 MEMORY INSTALLATION

WARNING!!!

• Make sure to unplug your power supply before adding or removing memory modules or other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your mainboard and expansion cards.

• Be careful when inserting or removing DIMM. Forcing a DIMM in or out of a socket improperly may damage the memory module or the socket. Some DIMMs which contain EDO or FTP DRAM are incompliant with the mainboard. The M/B supports 2.5V true SDRAM DIMMs only.

Installing DIMM

• Make sure you have the correct memory module type for your mainboard.

• Insert the module(s) as shown below, DIMMs have 184-pins and one notch that will be matched by the ON BOARD DIMM socket. Memory modules are installed by inserting them straight into the slot until they “click” in the right place. They only fit in one direction, so do not force them in by a wrong direction.

2-5 FSB Frequency SELECT (By SW1 DIP1~DIP4)

• Over clocking is not recommended, your system may work unstable.

• SW1 DIP1~4 settings for FSB (Front Side Bus) Frequency Select is a redundancy device designed for professional CPU overclocking only. Since this mainboard is designed with CPU clock auto-detection function, you are recommended to use the SW1 DIP1~4 default setting for a stable system performance. In case of CPU overclocking to higher frequency, these exists high possibility of failure due to the high complexity of components adopted on board. On the other hand, selecting a lower frequency setting for a CPU with higher frequency (e.g. select 100MHz setting for a 133MHz CPU) will also cause system failure.

If your mainboard has Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take advantage of this function. For fans with speed sensors, each rotation of the fan blades will send out 2 electric pulses, by which System Hardware Monitor will work out the fan rotation speed.

NOTE 1: Always consult vendor for proper CPU cooling fan. NOTE 2: CPU FAN supports the FAN control. You can install PC Alert

utility. This will automatically control the CPU FAN speed according to the actual CPU temperature.

CHAPTER 4

BIOS SETUP

THE BIOS

• BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. It is sometimes called ROM BIOS because it is stored in a Read-Only Memory(ROM) chip on the mainboard. BIOS is the first program to run when you turn on your computer.

• BIOS performs the following functions:

1. Initializing and testing hardware in your computer (a process called “POST”, for Power On Self Test).

2. Loading and running your operating system.

3. Helping your operating system and application programs to manage your PC hardware by means of a set of routines called BIOS Run Time Service.

This chapter contains the following topics :

4-1 WHAT IS BIOS SETUP 4-2 HOW TO RUN BIOS SETUP 4-3 WHAT IS CMOS 4-4 WHAT IS POST 4-5 BIOS UPGRADE 4-6 BIOS SETUP

Page 47

BIOS Setup

4-1 WHAT IS BIOS SETUP

• BIOS setup is an interactive BIOS program that you need to run when:

1. Changing the hardware of your system. (For example: installing a new Hard Disk etc.)

2. Modifying the behavior of your computer. (For example: changing the system time or date, or turning special features on or off etc.)

3. Enhancing your computer’s behavior. (For example: speeding up performance by turning on shadowing or cache)

4-2 HOW TO RUN BIOS SETUP

• To access BIOS setup menu, press < DEL > key after “POST”, and before the OS is loaded. The BIOS usually displays the following message:

Press DEL to enter SETUP

4-3 WHAT IS CMOS

• CMOS is the memory maintained by a battery. The BIOS uses CMOS to store the settings you have selected in SETUP. CMOS also maintains the internal clock. Every time you turn on your computer, the BIOS Looks into CMOS for the settings you have selected and configures your computer accordingly. If the battery is out of power, the CMOS data will be lost and POST will issue a “CMOS invalid” or “CMOS checksum invalid” message. If this happens, you have to replace the battery and do some proper set tings in SETUP.

4-4 WHAT IS POST

• POST is an acronym for Power On Self Test. POST will test all things the BIOS does before the operating system is started. Each of POST routines is assigned a POST code, a unique number which is sent to I/O port 080h before the routine is executed.

4-5 BIOS UPGRADE

• System BIOS is incorporated into a Flash memory component of the mainboard. Flash BIOS allows user to upgrade BIOS without the need to replace an EPROM component.

Page 48

65DRV

• The upgrade utility can be loaded on a floppy diskette and used to provide the capability to save, verify, and update the system BIOS. The upgrade utility can be run from a hard disk drive or a network drive.

4-5.1 BEFORE UPGRADING BIOS

• It is highly recommended that you save a copy of the original mainboard BIOS along with a Flash EPROM Programming utility (AWDFLASH.EXE) to a bootable floppy disk in case you need to reinstall the BIOS later.

4-5.2 UPGRADE PROCESS

Note: Normally, to upgrade BIOS is unnecessary if the system is working

fine without any problem. Users should not upgrade the BIOS unless you experience incompatible problems or need to create new features. However, please read all information in this section before upgrading.

“AWDFLASH.EXE” is a Flash EPROM Programming utility that updates the BIOS by uploading a new BIOS file to the programmable flash ROM on the mainboard, This program only works in DOS environment only, the utility

can not be executed in win95/98, ME, NT or WINDOWS 2000 environment.

Upgrading the system BIOS

Step 1. Please visit the board maker’s website, download latest BIOS file and award flash utility “AWDFLASH.EXE”. The BIOS file format will be *.bin, of which “*” stands for the specific file name.

Step 2. Create a bootable diskette. Then copy the BIOS file and award flash utility “AWDFLASH.EXE” into the diskette.

Step 3. Insert the diskette into drive A, reboot your system and boot from the diskette.

Page 49

BIOS Setup

Step 4. Type awdflash *.bin /sn/py/cc and then press <Enter> to run BIOS upgrade program. (*.bin depends on your mainboard model and version code. Instead of typing “*”, you should type specific file name for your specific mainboard).

Step 5. Please press <F1> or <F10> to exit or reset your system, Warning ! If the message “Write Fail” appears while Award “FLASH MEMORY WRITER” is verifying Flash memory, just repeat the process. Please DO NOT reset or turn off the system. If the award memory flash utility is not able to update the BIOS successfully, your system may not be able to boot up.

Step 6. You will need a message “CMOS checksum error-Default loaded” during booting the system. Press <Del> to run CMOS setup utility, then reload “LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS” or “Load Optimized Defaults” and save this change.

user starts the current session. <F6>: Load all options with the BIOS default values. <F7>: Load all options with the Setup default values.

Virus Warning When enabled, you receive a warning message if a

program (specifically, a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector or the partition table of the hard disk drive. You should then run an antivirus program. Keep in mind that this feature protects only the boot sector, not the entire hard drive.

NOTE: Many disk diagnostic programs that access the boot sector

table can trigger the virus warning message. If you plan to run such a program, we recommend that you disable the virus warning.

CPU Internal Cache/

External Cache

Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type up contain internal cache memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have additional (external) cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the requested data from the main DRAM into cache memory, for faster access by the CPU.
